Thought I’d add some stuff to it for all you beautiful people. I got an email from a dude talking about close friend group pulling him down. They’d always talk smack about instagram people they follow, no motivation, wanted to drink, etc. A. notice: Birds of feather flock together You ARE who you hang around. See eagles flying with crows? See millionaires hanging with construction workers? See fat people — the study shows you’re 50% MORE likely to be obese if best friends are!! You MUST realize this that who you hang around… you become. NOTICE - if you think they’re toxic… just keep notes in your head. WARNING SIGNS: 1. Mad at your success 2. Project their limiting beliefs onto you 3. Lack ambition and long-term vision i.e. had a close friend who had girlfriend ALWAYS drinking. Binge drinking bottles of wine.

BLUNT: Ethically do it: Have an honest real talk with them. Don’t have to be rude, but you’re telling them you don’t want to see them anymore. Break up. 2.
